Friday Buzz | Newsies Jr. Tickets Still Available

Shows are this evening and tomorrow afternoon

I also had pictures of the caterpillars who are eating all my broccoli leaves, but I decided to spare you and instead show you my abundant cucumber plants. Anyone need cucumbers? We have PLENTY. 😂 Photo by author.

Hello, friends!

Happy Friday! I have a few notes for you today, and that’s all.

Water Ban

You might have received an email or read a Facebook post or *ahem* gotten a letter in the mail about this already, but it bears repeating: our water supply is low. Like, real low. (I was going to be slick here and embed a post from the DPW on Facebook, but for some reason I can’t share it so either go there yourself or take my word for it:) We are not quite in an emergency situation yet, but we’re creeping into that territory. There is an outdoor watering ban in effect. Say what you will about Burlington water (and if you’ve been here for awhile you know I have plenty to say), if there’s no water in Mill Pond and the Shawsheen River and the Quabbin, there’s no water for our showers and (albeit reverse-osmosis-filtered) drinking and cooking and garden watering. Please observe the outdoor watering ban, for the sake of the community.

Go See a Play This Weekend!

Newsies, Jr. is happening at BHS, and it’s gonna be super fun. There are still tickets left, so get yours now! shows are at 7:00 tonight and 2:00 tomorrow.

Friday Funny

When I first scrolled by this photo, I 100% saw every single one of these people (and a hint of Brad Pitt, tbh) before I ever read the caption. What about you?

Alright, that’s it for me. But I’ll see you tomorrow with an exciting community announcement!

Until then,

Nicci
